It's official: Logan Paul and UFC have reached an agreement. However, contrary to what the MMA community may think, the YouTuber will not be in action in the Octagon. His brand, PRIME, has been announced as the UFC's new official sports drink partner. In addition to him, another digital influencer, KSI, also has a stake in the business.
“We are excited to name PRIME as the official sports drink of the UFC and an official partner of the UFC Performance Institute. Logan and KSI have worked hard to transform PRIME into the tastiest, hottest sports drink on the market. With the UFC's large social media following and global reach, we will put the PRIME brand in front of hundreds of millions of fans around the world. Whether you are a professional athlete or simply love working out, PRIME should be your first choice for a preferred sports drink,” said Dana White, president of Ultimate, in a press release.
